Oil crayons (18 assorted colours) – Filia

Oil crayons mix (18) / Waldorf art supplies – Filia

A classic for decades in Danish schools and home settings, the non-toxic high-quality Filia oil crayons offer lightfast and vibrant colours which are transparent and mix very well.

They are similar to oil pastels, but not as soft, and allow for many interesting drawing techniques. The Filia oil crayons are very strong and resist breakage. Each crayon is square-shaped and has a pointed tip allowing for the drawing of outlining, defined contours, two-dimensional drawing and shading. The crayons measure 60×7.5×7.5 mm and have no wrapper so the entire crayon can be used to apply colour.

With a sponge and turpentine, it is possible to “watercolour paint” with these hard, oil crayons.

Filia oil crayons meet the highest educational, aesthetic and artistic demands and promise years of pure drawing pleasure and are an integral part of a sound concept for (Waldorf) art education for children.

The set includes 18 assorted colours with a high luminosity: 51 black | 52 dark brown | 53 dark blue | 54 pale green | 55 red | 56 vermilion | 57 orange | 58 yellow | 59 white | 60 blue violet | 61 pale blue | 62 dark green | 63 red violet | 64 ultramarine | 65 pale brown | 66 pale orange | 67 pale yellow | 68 grey.

Filia oil crayons have been tried and tested in art education, at Waldorf/Steiner schools, traditional schools as well as kindergartens and are made in Denmark according to a long-lasting tradition.

This material is suitable for children aged 3 years and up.
